A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.

A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.

RULES:

1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.

2 No Trolling

3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, anti-communism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.

4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.

5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.

6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' Tankie, etc. This includes instance shaming.

Auth Leftist's know their true goals are considered abhorrent and would be treated like throwing up a seig heil so they have to lie

Spoken just like someone who voted for trump by proxy.

In the context of the image in the post, what does the word "empire" mean to you?

Imagine the irony behind supporting a party that gave us Trump both times and then saying, "Oh no, it wasn't me, it was someone else."

You're a coward for removing my comment.

Your assumption that a critique of Democrats implies a vote for Trump is infantile at best

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Ah, so you really don't understand American politics. I'm not surprised. Go ban me or whatever you little power trippers do. According to the upvotes before your cowardly removal of my comment, your opinion was not the prevailing one, but by all means do what makes you feel big. You're too much of a chickenshit to allow conversation in the comm I'll go ahead and block you and it because you are both useless to me.

[–] K1nsey6@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

Conversation is allowed. Liberals coming in here with their liberalism to tell us that we have got it all wrong but they have all the answers for us is not tolerated.

Radlibs irritate me so much

What gets me is that they put on a mask, a veneer of being a decent, nice, thoughtful human being. When you get passed that, you find they'd step on your face if it got them a nickle. That they are as full of bile and malignancy as your typical reactionary. Just they wear a rainbow pin and say BLM emptily.

Fuck the corpo dems, but if you’re an establishment liberal then you aren’t embarrassed about this at all.

The goal of majority of democratic socialists in America is to redistribute imperial super profits to the American working class (excluding immigrants and other oppressed groups the DSA can conveniently ignore). Their billionaires certainly didn't get that rich from taking all that money from Americans.
